BEAUTY: TRUTH or MYTH?

On Studio 10 today, I explain some beauty myths & truths. Here they are: http://www.studio10.tv/video/default.aspx?bctid=3058153123001

1. Chocolate makes you break out.
MYTH – Chocolate won’t cause a breakout, but it is true that a poor diet can irritate your skin, so try to limit your chocolate cravings!

2. The best place to apply perfume is on pulse points.
TRUTH – Applying perfume to pulse points is the best way to make your scent last all day. Fragrances react with heat, so spritz your perfume on your wrists or the back of your neck and you won’t need to worry about re-applying.

3. Your cell phone can make you break out.
TRUTH – Apparently cell phones are premiere breeding grounds for germs. Some experts say the average cell phone has more germs than doorknobs and even toilet seats — yuck! Make sure you take a clean cloth to your cell phone screen every so often to help get rid of any breakout-causing germs!

4. Brushing your hair 100 times every night will increase its shine.
MYTH – Brushing your hair too much actually increases the potential for pulling out strands of hair. Instead, just brush your hair when drying or styling it and use a shine spray if you’re looking for more luster.

5. Ignoring a need for glasses can lead to wrinkles.
TRUTH – Ignoring the need for glasses means more squinting, right? And more squinting leads to…you guessed it — wrinkles. In fact, any repetitive facial movement can lead to wrinkles so wear your glasses and sunglasses!

6. Matching eye shadow with your eye color will make your eyes pop?

MYTH – Actually, contrasting your eye makeup with your eye color is what will really makes your eyes stand out. Here are a couple recommendations based on your eye color:
Green/Hazel: Plum, deep browns, and light golden hues
Blue: Smoky charcoals, chocolate, and bright berry tones
Brown: Soft pinks, natural beige, and shades of bronze

Crossing your legs causes varicose veins?

MYTH – There are plenty of ways to potentially develop varicose veins, but none of them are related to crossing your legs (sigh of relief). Some examples of what could causes varicose veins include genetics, obesity, trauma to the skin, etc.

Feel a Little Tropical with Mango Moonbreeze by gud

GUD Mango Body Lotion

A friend of mine gave me gud Body Lotion to try, she knows how much I love all the Burt’s Bees products. Burt’s Bees products are never made with Parabens, Phthalates, or Petrochemicals! Only with natural ingredients!! I was looking forward to applying gud Body Lotion Mango Moonbreeze on my skin and feel a little tropical. I was crazy busy with the holidays that I left the gud Body Lotion on my desk in my kitchen. In the meantime, I was using other creams but one day as I was rubbing hand cream into my hands, it dawned on me that I had forgotten to try the gud Body Lotion. Searching up and down and around my desk, looking into cupboards, desk drawers, file cabinets, gud Body Lotion was no where to be found….. taking the trash out one day, I noticed the gud Body Lotion in the trash. It was completely EMPTY! I stormed into the house and questioned everyone who resides in my household. They were not shy, all came clean and said they used gud Body Lotion and LOVED IT. They were wondering when I was going to purchase more! So my blog is my family’s review on gud Body Lotion Mango Moonbreeze from Burt’s Bees…..

My husband said it absorbs quickly into his skin recovering his dryness, never leaving his body greasy. Loves the mango tropical fragrance! My daughter who has very sensitive skin stated she fell in love with the scent!!! Loved that it applied smooth and silky on her hands, arms and legs! It was safe for her to use – No Breakouts! My mother requested her own bottle of gud Body Lotion Mango Moonbreeze. She said it smoothed out all her dry, rough patches and refreshed and left her skin feeling silky and soft. She also loved the mango and jasmine scent! As for my son, he used gud Body Lotion on his dry hands and loved how it was non-greasy and fast-absorbing! I am glad my family is happy with gud from Burt’s Bees and it really works. It makes me feel good that they are using a product that contains no Parabens, Phthalates or Petrochemicals! Also, it is never tested on animals and is made in the USA. Thank you gud from Burt’s Bees for satisfying my family! I am pleased! True Story!!!

For Allison Williams’ Golden Globes red carpet beauty, Avon Global Celebrity Makeup Artist Lauren Andersen created a classic sultry smokey eye to match Allison’s black and white gown, complemented by a soft pink rose lip. Here’s how to get the look.

On Allison’s face, Lauren applied YSL Le Teint Touche Eclat Illuminating Foundation and then dusted on Hourglass Ambient Lighting Powder in Radiant Light.

Get the Look: Red Carpet Styles by TRESemmé Stylist John D

Tonight, TRESemmé Celebrity Stylist John D. created gorgeous hairstyles for several leading ladies on the red carpet, including Greta Gerwig and Drew Barrymore. Please find his hairstyle how-to’s with images below for reference.

Best actress nominee, Greta Gerwig turned heads in her DKNY Atelier gown and gorgeous, textured up-do.

“Our inspiration for tonight was purely feeling beautiful. We wanted the look to be elegant, classic, and romantic so I opted for a soft, romantic ‘do to complement Greta’s style.”

Link to Images: http://www.gettyimages.com/Search/Search.aspx?contractUrl=2&language=en-US&family=editorial&assetType=image&p=greta+gerwig+january+12

How-to:

Use TRESemmé 24 Hour Body Foaming Mousse on clean hair and apply throughout, from root to tip, for volume and a great foundation. Blow-dry hair using a medium-sized round brush to add extra bounce and lift at the root
Once hair is dry, use a 1″ curling iron to create body, which helps add softness to the final look. It also holds hair together, which is necessary when creating an up-do. Once finished, flip head upside-down and spray waves using TRESemmé TRES Two Ultra Fine Mist Hair Spray
Section off the hair that frames the face (ear to ear) and give the hair a light back comb at the root for added lift. Then, rake fingers through hair to tame down excess lift and pull remaining hair back toward the nape of the neck. Split hair into two sections and proceed to tie hair into knots creating a kind of loose “chain” effect. Bobby pin into place. Pull the remaining hair, that was sectioned out, toward the back of the head and secure using a few hair pins.
Finish the look by spraying TRESemmé TRES Two Hairspray all over to lock it in place. Try embellishing the style using some sparkly jewelry or an accessory – Greta wore Vintage Fred Leighton pieces.

Drew Barrymore looked radiant in her embellished Monique Lhuillier gown. To complement her fun and feminine style, we opted for a super straight look with a deep side part. “I wanted to balance the exquisite detail on her gown by keeping the hair simple and chic.”

Link to images: http://www.gettyimages.com/Search/Search.aspx?contractUrl=2&language=en-US&family=editorial&assetType=image&p=drew+barrymore+january+12+2014

How-to:

Prep clean, towel-dried hair with a thermal heat protectant spray and spritz throughout. Comb through to ensure hair is coated, and blow dry. To get a super smooth blowout, I like to use a boar bristle paddle brush. This allows you to get a nice hold on each section and create tension to aid in the smoothing process.
Once hair is dry, use a flat iron on a medium-to-low setting and run the iron through the hair to seal down the cuticle and add great shine.
Determine parting and tuck behind ears. To ensure a nice smooth part, use just a dab of mousse and spread it out onto fingertips then apply the product to the parting area to create extra shine and added hold. Take a small dab of hair creme, emulsify into palms and run through the mid-lengths and ends to tame fly-aways and add shine.

Cate Blanchett at the 2014 Golden Globes – Makeup by Jeanine Lobell

THE LOOK: Soft and Romantic
THE INSPIRATION: “We didn’t want to do the expected red lip to go with her gorgeous Armani black gown,” Said Lobell. “So we went the softer route. No harsh lines. Instead, I blended colors for dimension.”
THE PRODUCTS: Eye – Lancôme Hypnôse Waterproof Custom Volume Mascara – Jeanine piled on layers and layers to both the top and bottom lash line, combined with individual flares, to create dramatic lashes. Chanel Les 4 Ombres Quadra Eye Shadow in Intuition and Illusion D’Ombre Long Wear Luminous Eyeshadow in Emervielle – By blending the pinky-beige and goldy-beige shades and dusting them from the lid to the lash line, in addition to adding a pop of Emervielle to the lid, Jeanine was able to create dimension without using any liners. Nars Brow Shader and Brow Gel – Jeanine created a defined but not too harsh brow
Face- Nars Highlighting Blush in Satellite of Love Lancôme Translucence Mattifying Silky Press Powder Jeanine layered both powders in order to highlight Cate’s defined cheekbones SK-II Facial Treatment Mask – Jeanine prepped Cate’s skin with this while she was getting her nails done
Lip- Giorgio Armani Rouge Ecstasy Lipstick in #502 Scarlatto and #509 Boudoir – Jeanine layered #509 Boudoir (a nude rose) on top of 502 #Scarlatto (a raspberry rose)

2014 Golden Globes; Get Kate Beckinsale’s Hair Look

Overall Inspiration: “With her wholesome, English rose good looks, Kate can get away with quite a bit of edginess in her hairstyle, so we went with a punk-inspired diva look that’s a bit different from her usual soft flowing waves.” “Get the Look” Hair—Prep/Style:

· Start by spraying Moroccanoil Root Boost directly on to the roots of damp hair. The spray will help add body and hold and it’s a great way to set the style in. It’ll also make hair more pliable and easier to work with.
· Start blow drying your hair using a skeleton brush; use your fingers to create texture and additional volume. Once the hair is fully dry, separate into a horseshoe shaped section (the part between both temples & your crown area) and clip the top section away.
· Pull the bottom section into a low, side ponytail at the nape of the neck and secure with an elastic. Then coil & wrap the tail into a messy bun. You can even tug a few strands out to create naturally falling bits and to loosen the bun. Secure it with bobby pins.
· Take the hair from the top section and backcomb the roots using Moroccanoil Boar Bristle Teasing Brush to maximize the volume at the crown and create a slightly disheveled texture.
· Secure the top section into the existing, loose bun with bobby pins.

Finishing Touches:

· Mist the hair with Moroccanoil Luminous Hairspray to add shine and long-lasting hold. Spray a little on finger tips and work it into the single strands to help define. Secure the final look with a few more pins. You’re good to go!
